Harvesting: Harvest tomatoes when fully colored and
firm. About 1 month before the average first fall frost,
clip all blossoms and any undersized fruit off the plant.
This will steer all the plant’s remaining energy into
ripening what’s left. If you have a lot of green tomatoes
near the end of the season, and a frost is approaching,
pick them and store them indoors in a single layer away
from direct sunlight to ripen.
